means more than delivering, it means over-delivering

Ameriflight is committed to getting deliveries where they need to be, exactly when they need to be there. Sure, we may have the largest fleet and latest technology, but it’s the passion of our pilots, ground crews, maintenance teams, and support staff that ultimately makes this all possible.

Weekly Departures:

1,700+

To keep our freighters flying we have a team of experienced Ameriflight mechanics at each of our operations centers that is backed up by an entire department devoted to quality control.

Dispatch Reliability Rate:

99.7%

With our dedicated, 24-hour dispatch centers, our clients' freight leaves on time with the support of our Operations department, ensuring everything gets delivered as promised.

Parts Inventory:

$15MILLION

To keep flying safely and efficiently, our critical parts inventory is ready should we need to do any preventive maintenance. Meanwhile, our computerized maintenance tracking system helps us plan major servicing and parts replacements.

flight hours per year:

90,000

We fly a lot. And our flight training program is legendary in the industry--far exceeding government requirements. So not only do our pilots get a lot of experience on different equipment, they're some of the most highly-trained pilots flying today.

packages handled every day:

75,000

It takes an intricately choreographed operation to move 30 tons of time-sensitive cargo in less than 45 minutes. It's just what we do, day in and day out.

Our clients are the world’s largest freight forwarders, as well as major banking firms, courier services, and laboratories. So just doing a good job isn’t good enough. To stay the leader in the FAR 135 cargo industry, we have to set the bar above and always perform beyond the rest of the industry. But that’s just the tip of things. See what else makes us better >
